will try.  this is supposed to imitate clicking on the unicorn or
calling the bookmark?

do i try with selecting and without selecting?

which capture key does it call?

i always run the emacs server in my regular emacs.  i don't
use the daemon.

however, i never found any good instructions on what to do to add js
to bookmarks.
i have a menu bar and a location bar + icons.  i'd like a button or
icon on the latter if possible.  my previous thrashing around caused a
>> symbol which is a drop down menu which contains the bookmarks.
i'll settle for that if nec.  but that is extra clicking i'd rather
avoid, and one of them brings up a page with js on it.

is this knowledge something that everybody except me possesses?  :)

the full error is:
Greedy org-protocol handler.  Killing client.
No server buffers remain to edit
